Folk Blues and Beyond on Oystermouth Radio

09/11/2023

Hallo folks! This is a post to let you know that I have relinquished my folk show on Oystermouth Radio. I have not been doing it justice over the last couple of months and have found it difficult to dedicate my time to recording new programmes. It was only fair that I let the station manage this in the best way they see fit. They have an archive of 69 shows that I've recorded and may rotate these in the interim until they decide what to do. My thanks go out to Grant, Malcolm and everyone at the station for giving me this opportunity. I have really enjoyed playing a part.

12/07/2023

There is a new edition of the folk show on tonight at 8.00pm repeated at the same time on Friday and in the wee hours of Monday morning at 3.00am. It's a themed show tonight with all tracks coming from albums released in 1970. Artists included in tonight's show are Robin & Barry Dransfield, James Taylor, Nick Drake, Amazing Blondel, Nic Jones, Matthews Southern Comfort, Fotheringay, Loudon Wainwright III, Bob Dylan, John Martyn, Strawbs, Ry Cooder, Don McLean and Rab Noakes. I hope you can give it a listen at the link below.
